Unit Schedule
This is a generalized schedule. Some In Class projects will be completed as homework even though not listed as such. Keep an eye on the Homework Calendar.
Understand and apply knowledge of the structure of the the earth system and the processes that change the earth and its surface.
The solid earth consists of of layers including a lithosphere; a hot, convecting mantle and a dense metallic core.
Tectonic plates constantly move at rates of centimeters per year in response to movements in the mantle. Major geological events such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building, are results of these plate motions.
